I currently have a Junior at BHS. He is an above average student and has had every opportunity to be challenged academically. He has taken mostly honors and AP courses (there are 23 to chose from). I am constantly amazed at the amount of work they expect these kids to do in each of their classes.

I graduated from BHS in 2001. AP and Honors classes are excellent, and I received enough AP credits to put me 20 credits ahead of incoming freshman. While at BHS I was in all AP or Honors classes except for math - however, the regular-level math classes I took were well-structured, and each teacher

I'm now a college senior who has earned only A's and B's in college, and my time at BHS prepared me incredibly well. I still miss BHS, and I had an incredible high school experience there. Read less
